Speaker 1: Welcome to the podcast for another week. And well, people,
Speaker 1: we start with I suppose we start by being eternally
Speaker 1: grateful the very fact that our we had a call
Speaker 1: last week, the cooper had a car accident, and for
Speaker 1: the grace of God, things could have been a lot worse.
Speaker 2: So you really change your lives forever.
Speaker 1: I'm not religious.
Speaker 2: We're very lucky. Yeah, yeah, that's all I can say.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you've only just sort of come good now. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you were pretty shaken up till I heard you come
Speaker 3: in yesterday from work and you said, I feel myself again.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, well I said that. I said, I said, guys,
Speaker 4: don't give me too much work this week. Wait till
Speaker 4: I get into the back end of my week and
Speaker 4: it'll be my normal, jovialself again. It was a little
Speaker 4: bit i'll tell you what, earlier in the week slow
Speaker 4: between the years, because you guys know me and the
Speaker 4: listeners know me. I'm sharp, I'm sharp, I'm witty, i'm quick,
Speaker 4: I'm funny. But I was very slow during the week,
Speaker 4: to the point where in the ad breaks people were saying, geez,
Speaker 4: you're you're slow, and I thought, that's a horrible thing
Speaker 4: to say, someone has just been in a car accident. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: but I mean everyone's people have heard different lists. Some
Speaker 4: of our listeners might not have known obviously. I flipped
Speaker 4: my car last week. I landed on the roof of
Speaker 4: It was very lucky, you know, not to be too unscathed.
Speaker 4: Just a bit of a concussion, a bit of a
Speaker 4: ko So it was lucky, which I've had plenty of
Speaker 4: them before.
Speaker 1: Tell us about what, tell us what you remember?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I remember driving, like the back right wheel. I
Speaker 4: can't remember if like they merged into my lane. It
Speaker 4: was the way it sort of happened, was like it
Speaker 4: seemed like they were I was a little bit behind
Speaker 4: them and their back wheel. They've come to merge into
Speaker 4: my lane and our two wheels have sort of collided,
Speaker 4: and then I just sort of got airborne and flipped
Speaker 4: under my roof, which was, you know, pretty scary.
Speaker 2: Tell you what they remember that time when you were airborne?
Speaker 4: No? No, no, no, actually no, sorry I do it
Speaker 4: was sorry, just was trying to grab something of while
Speaker 4: I'm talking a pretty serious thing, pretty serious topic for
Speaker 4: you to be interrupting me. True, I don't want to
Speaker 4: say anything. No, no, look like I remember being airborne
Speaker 4: on that and it was pretty quick when I look
Speaker 4: back now, very slow. Everything came out of my glove box.
Speaker 4: It was floating like I was near Armstrong in space
Speaker 4: buzz and everything was in front of me. I was like,
Speaker 4: what's going on? Hitting stuff? And then I've hit the deck,
Speaker 4: hit the hit the road. Everything's come forward. It happened
Speaker 4: like mad quick. But yeah, when the worst part was,
Speaker 4: I was just upside down and I was just like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, did you know you're upside down? We're fully aware
Speaker 1: of it's straight away.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's pretty aware. The blood in my head.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we went through your bag the other day because
Speaker 3: you actually went to grab some of your stuff from
Speaker 3: the smash repairs. Yeah, and all your your bag and
Speaker 3: like some of your jumpers and stuff in there all
Speaker 3: had like glass.
Speaker 1: I hope you cleaned it.
Speaker 3: Well, it's there for you too clean up.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah. But undid my seat belt drop straight to the
Speaker 4: windshield like I was like in a plane, like those
Speaker 4: plane movies where they crashed and they all under the
Speaker 4: seat and they just dropped snakes on a plane.
Speaker 1: It was like that.
Speaker 4: But before that, and I've told this, I said this
Speaker 4: on the radio as well. But I I must have
Speaker 4: been somewhat conscious because I remember I'm sitting there and
Speaker 4: the first thought was have I just have I hurt
Speaker 4: someone else?
Speaker 1: That must have been an awful feeling.
Speaker 4: That was rank. That was a rank feeling, because no,
Speaker 4: when I hurt anyone else, happy for me to be hurt,
Speaker 4: happy to hurt myself, like, but I don't want to
Speaker 4: hurt anyone else. And then my second thought was what
Speaker 4: the fuck is playing on the radio? I had Abba
Speaker 4: vult vu blasting. I must have been singing it hard
Speaker 4: out because I get into Apple. I've always been a fan.
Speaker 1: Remind me, no wonder, no under I flipped it and
Speaker 1: then I was like ship because like emergency services are
Speaker 1: on the way, people start run over to my car,
Speaker 1: so I just.
Speaker 4: Like reach over all I'm upside down. Just give the
Speaker 4: little dial a little twist down to zero. Yeah, that
Speaker 4: would have been embarrassing. Cooper John's flips car and listening
Speaker 4: to Ville.
Speaker 3: You were saying too the iPhone it like sent an emergency.
Speaker 4: Yeah, good queste ringing you didn't it? Excellent? Shout out
Speaker 4: to Apple, thanks for putting this feature in. So when
Speaker 4: you have a car accident, it must just know based
Speaker 4: on the speed you're going into the instant stop, there's
Speaker 4: been an accident, and it immediately calls triple zero. So
Speaker 4: it rang triple zero while I was upside down, and
Speaker 4: then they were ringing me like four or five times
Speaker 4: because my car was still on so I couldn't get
Speaker 4: the keys out because it was like stuck.
Speaker 1: So it's still on.
Speaker 4: So I kept ringing through my thing. I'm like really
Speaker 4: loud that everyone in the street, could you. So I
Speaker 4: was crawling back through trying to find my phone. Finally
Speaker 4: found it and it was like zero zero zero kept
Speaker 4: ringing me, and I was like, oh yeah, sweet, Like
Speaker 4: I'm all good, just come and send a toad person.
Speaker 1: To come and how long were how many? How much
Speaker 1: traffic was behind you? Right?
Speaker 4: My car flipped along three lanes.
Speaker 1: Oh geez.
Speaker 4: So and I'm on a busy ride around lunchtime.
Speaker 1: So've ruined a lot of days.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well a lot of people have been sending The
Speaker 4: people behind me were sending me like footage of meat.
Speaker 4: Like to be fair, not enough people got out of
Speaker 4: their car to come see the coop dog. I'm not
Speaker 4: going to lie first. I come over. He was like
Speaker 4: a garbo and he come up and he's like, Coops,
Speaker 4: you are right, and I was like, yeah, good.
Speaker 1: A lot of potty listeners.
Speaker 4: Really, it must have been a fucking busy day for
Speaker 4: our potty listeners, all of them like them and breakfast
Speaker 4: radio listeners all coming through spraying me once they knew
Speaker 4: I was sweet, spraying me going can't park there. I
Speaker 4: heard that a thousand times. I heard that.
Speaker 1: I would have heard that.
Speaker 4: One liner a thousand times, and the coppers were like, geez,
Speaker 4: they're into you. I was like, yeah, I don't know
Speaker 4: what's going on, but yeah, look, I want to thank
Speaker 4: everyone for the messages, lots of message I turned the
Speaker 4: phone off on Friday, so I couldn't get back to
Speaker 4: a lot of people, but a lot of our potty
Speaker 4: listeners got in touch, lots of messages. Also, shout out
Speaker 4: to the sport of rugby league because I was I
Speaker 4: was sitting there getting the motion over the weekend while
Speaker 4: you guys were all up at Magic Ground having fun.
Speaker 4: So many so many Sure was it because it looked
Speaker 4: pretty was a.
Speaker 3: Lot of fun.
Speaker 1: We had a lot of fun.
Speaker 3: Best wigains extra fun.
Speaker 4: Yeah, sure we will. I thought we had time for
Speaker 4: and then just lots of like lots of people you're
Speaker 4: meeting rugby league along the way, you might not necessarily
Speaker 4: like keeping contact with them regularly, but when something happens,
Speaker 4: they're always they get around you. So so many of
Speaker 4: the manly and storm sponsors got in contact with me.
Speaker 1: And did you receive a message from someone that really
Speaker 1: surprised you.
Speaker 4: I'd have to go back through, mate, I literally had thousands.
Speaker 2: Sticky Ricky didn't say one.
Speaker 4: Just too soon, Mate, I was in a pretty horrific
Speaker 4: car accident. It's too soon, I reckon. No, I didn't
Speaker 4: get on for him. There would there would be like
Speaker 4: there would be I'll try, I'll go through my phone
Speaker 4: during the party and I'll read a couple that are okay.
Speaker 1: I'm going to run through a list of ones I
Speaker 1: expect they would have texted, and we'll see if one
Speaker 1: hasn't okay. Gas Gale Gap.
Speaker 4: The best Saturday Gazing. Gale was so they've been tipped
Speaker 4: up because it was in the paper. Obviously they didn't
Speaker 4: have social media. So I got on the front foot
Speaker 4: and I like sort of sat on social media. I'm
Speaker 4: sweet because I saw the reports coming out and they
Speaker 4: were very click baby, very almost it looked like I died.
Speaker 4: So I was like including Trish's post two days later, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: we're going to get to that. True put up a
Speaker 4: post that said we miss you Cooper. It looked like
Speaker 4: I died For people.
Speaker 2: It was because you weren't coming up to Magic I know,
Speaker 2: but for context.
Speaker 3: You put a caption over the image, like honestly, it
Speaker 3: was like a little memorial.
Speaker 1: For the CRUCIFIXI at the bottom. That was. But the
Speaker 1: worst part.
Speaker 4: Was not everyone would have known I'm not at Magic Round.
Speaker 4: What about the people that weren't at Magic Ground who
Speaker 4: didn't know that? And you're if you read the.
Speaker 5: Caption, I relate to the people what our conversation was
Speaker 5: because I'd said to you, oh, who all come straight
Speaker 5: home after the show, and you said, oh, please don't.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, but you were the epitome of clickbait because
Speaker 4: the first thing people saw was we miss you.
Speaker 1: Well, what happened the Melbourne storm before the game? Against camera?
Speaker 1: Did a minute silence?
Speaker 5: Do they stop? Don't joke about these feel sick about
Speaker 5: this as we're talking about.
Speaker 1: Making me I'm joking on that side of things. I
Speaker 1: would never joke about a car.
Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no, obviously it's we're a week and
Speaker 4: a half on so look, it's all right, but sometimes
Speaker 4: I'd like to we take the piece out of me
Speaker 4: a lot in this podcast. This is the turning.
Speaker 1: What about Uncle Joey.
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, Gaz and girl rang me, but I had
Speaker 4: my phone off all day, so when they rang, Gaz
Speaker 4: let me a voicemail. Coops, it's guys, you got to
Speaker 4: bring me back. I'm bloody worried about. And again Gaz
Speaker 4: was going in the phone call like love Gaz and
Speaker 4: we love him and we're going to get him on
Speaker 4: some stage. He just keep asking for too much cash.
Speaker 4: But Gaz was like, I don't know what I'd do
Speaker 4: without you, he said, and I went, Gazz, I'm pretty
Speaker 4: sure you'd be all right. You'd like you see me
Speaker 4: like twice a year, and you've got enough nieces and
Speaker 4: nephews they'll get you.
Speaker 1: Gaz once picked Trisha from newcast Leopord after you've been
Speaker 1: to Bali for a week, and Gas started crying.
Speaker 2: He cried when he dropped me off, and he cried
Speaker 2: when he picked me up.
Speaker 1: That's so bizarre emotional.
Speaker 4: But Uncle Joey, he.
Speaker 5: Awfully because I had spoken to Gail that morning because
Speaker 5: I was worried that they're here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I knew.
Speaker 4: They rang a bit late. But Uncle Joey talked about
Speaker 4: a bike that was too late to the party. It
Speaker 4: was like, and he might have been tipped off. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I know, he said, Jack just told me. I said, mate,
Speaker 4: it's been everywhere all day.
Speaker 3: It was like three days later. It was like three
Speaker 3: days later, and I'm slow to the punch. I was
Speaker 3: in country Road don'ts and was in there and I thought,
Speaker 3: you know what, Cooper told me? He hasn't heard from
Speaker 3: Uncle jose I give him a ring, mate, I said,
Speaker 3: you spoke to Coop and he goes, no, what I said, Oh,
Speaker 3: have you not read the news? And he goes, what happened?
Speaker 3: I said, Oh, he's in a pretty bad car accident. Goes, oh, geez,
Speaker 3: didn't didn't ask if you're right? When well, bloody give
Speaker 3: him a ring.
Speaker 4: Then the conversation was so funny. He goes yeah, and
Speaker 4: it was immediately like how was yeah, mate, I'm.
Speaker 1: All right, thank god all that stuff.
Speaker 4: And then he goes, yeah, made magic round.
Speaker 1: You're excited for magic.
Speaker 4: I was like, I don't know if I'm going Joey
Speaker 4: and he goes, well, if you are, we'll catch up.
Speaker 1: I saw him at a Kelly Country. Well looked in
Speaker 1: he was a Kelly Country. There was a there was
Speaker 1: a winter clearness clearance sale and he was in there
Speaker 1: trying stuff. I never knew he was Kelly Country. Kelly
Speaker 1: Country is like a sort of like a tough country.
Speaker 4: Where oh really it's a brand.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a brand's I can't another person who texture sweeps.
Speaker 4: I didn't hear from Tony what but they had games,
Speaker 4: so I didn't hear from him by yeah, but not
Speaker 4: you don't guarantee you everyone's going to see the news.
Speaker 4: Didn't hear from belly A, Oh my god, but I
Speaker 4: did hear it. But Frank Peronisi and a lot of
Speaker 4: the Melbourn boys rang me on behalf of Billy K.
Speaker 4: So let's say that Frank rang me on their game
Speaker 4: day in the morning. So, but he'd only just found
Speaker 4: out he got tipped off by someone you guys had
Speaker 4: lunch breakfast with up at Magic Round, another football manager.
Speaker 4: He said, he was like, oh, I just he said,
Speaker 4: they spoke to your parents and they told him about
Speaker 4: the cargo. So obviously a lot of a lot of
Speaker 4: people you know, must have been living under rocks. They
Speaker 4: didn't hear about it, Harry Grant. Harry rang me that,
Speaker 4: not like I tipped off. I rang probably the night
Speaker 4: it happened, because it come out on the Thursday when
Speaker 4: a lot of the stuff started coming out, or the
Speaker 4: clickbait and that. But I rang like five or six
Speaker 4: of the boys the night before, just to let them
Speaker 4: know before reading the before, like the close mates who
Speaker 4: wanted to hear.
Speaker 1: About a contortionist Torren Wisher.
Speaker 4: You know I was into Wishy because I rang him
Speaker 4: on the Wednesday. He was him and Harry. I rang
Speaker 4: them together, and I rang Harry and then after Woods
Speaker 4: wish he wasn't in the rooms and then she goes,
Speaker 4: Harry's just showed me the picture. You're right, and I
Speaker 4: ranging him straight back. He picked up with him two rings. Now.
Speaker 4: The thing about why that's annoying is because I'm the
Speaker 4: kind of mate that rings the boys all the time
Speaker 4: once a week. I'm a good mate, keeping contact wishes
Speaker 4: one relentlessly. If you had a bullet, if you had
Speaker 4: a gun to your head and they said ring a mate,
Speaker 4: and if they don't pick up you survive, you'd ring
Speaker 4: wishy because he never picks up his phone ever, Rather
Speaker 4: wishy washy. And then I said to him, you know,
Speaker 4: I said, Wishy, it shouldn't take for a car accident
Speaker 4: for you to pick up your fucking phone.
Speaker 2: But you know what, being on the phone is exhausting.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 3: But is this enough for Cooper's accidental monologue? Yeah, his
Speaker 3: little monologue. This has turned into for the first twelve
Speaker 3: minutes of the podcast.
Speaker 1: It's on the other Joe shot.
Speaker 4: Guys, if you don't think that this deserves air time,
Speaker 4: it's awareness.
Speaker 1: We can cut it out if.
Speaker 2: You were seeding or anything.
Speaker 5: Because I asked you that, I said, were you speaking,
Speaker 5: and you know you said, I was slowing down.
Speaker 2: We're going towards him.
Speaker 4: But it was kind of a freak accident, that's what
Speaker 4: the copper said. He was like, you've hit You've just
Speaker 4: hit each other.
Speaker 1: Perfect.
Speaker 4: It's a perfect scenario because you've turned out alright. He
Speaker 4: was fine. That guy drove off. Yeah, the taxi driver.
Speaker 1: A little strape on the bumper, that's about it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he was.
Speaker 4: He just went and picked up another passenger.
Speaker 1: Andy, on a completely different note, talking about Wishy before,
Speaker 1: did you see him during the game. It's a reward
Speaker 1: for his hard work. There was a loose ball on
Speaker 1: the ground. It actually went through his legs. He bent down,
Speaker 1: he foot his head through his legs and got the balls.
Speaker 1: It actually happened. Yeah, it went down. He had his
Speaker 1: head literally through his knees. For completely different purpose. It
Speaker 1: served us purpose.
Speaker 4: Correct correct, Yeah, mobility seriously, Well, we started making that
Speaker 4: reference with a contortionist who wanted to get his bottom
Speaker 4: ribs removed. That was that was twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1: Wow?
Speaker 2: Is it that long ago?
Speaker 4: And this is a great lesson for kids. Four years
Speaker 4: later he pulls that out on the biggest stage. What
Speaker 4: is It's the one person and relentlessly training that every
Speaker 4: single day for four years now.
Speaker 1: He's obviously always practiceing flexibility.
Speaker 3: It's an asset.
Speaker 4: Always if you work hard, you lucky, you'll get there.
Speaker 3: Now, can we talk about magic ground? Can we finally
Speaker 3: get away from Cooper's accident?
Speaker 2: And you know what everyone up there was asking about.
Speaker 4: Oh that's nice and actually really before we get missed.
Speaker 1: Before we get the magic round. People with a car theme.
Speaker 1: If you're a car, which would.
Speaker 5: You be and why I would be very particular A
Speaker 5: pale blue vintage Aston Martin dB three convertible.
Speaker 2: It's my dream car.
Speaker 1: I think she's misconstrued. What I think she's misconstrued what
Speaker 1: the break is? You're a car, we're talking.
Speaker 4: You understand this. I picked Joshadow car.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what we're talking about. You mixed it up
Speaker 1: with the coop.
Speaker 3: What are you talking about?
Speaker 1: We're talking about cars. Wears car Yeah, yeah yeah. Sing
Speaker 1: it from Strain and Idol. Yeah, he was Johnny Carson.
Speaker 2: I think I've been stitched on.
Speaker 1: I thought I spilled it out for you. It's the thing.
Speaker 2: Actually, I actually thought it was weird.
Speaker 4: But it's quite triggering.
Speaker 1: Magic Ground. Firstly, off the top of the John's Family
Speaker 1: Podcast Alive from the Leisure Deck. It was sensational. We
Speaker 1: knew it was going to look We knew it was
Speaker 1: going to be a lot of fun, in particular the
Speaker 1: second break with all the music and everything in the
Speaker 1: audience participation. But thank you so much to all the
Speaker 1: people that turned up. It was beyond expectations.
Speaker 2: They're lining up. Yeah, it was really nice. It's so
Speaker 2: nice to meet our listeners. How nice?
Speaker 5: How good people are they love They're good people, They're
Speaker 5: good folks.
Speaker 3: We had some favorites there. But they were, yeah, they were.
Speaker 3: They were very good. Shame that they couldn't have a
Speaker 3: few drinks before it started, because we obviously started at midday.
Speaker 3: You know, you can't feeling you did. But by the
Speaker 3: time we got to the second part they'd been well
Speaker 3: oiled up. And yeah, it was a lot more fun.
Speaker 3: Thank you to good and tell us to the ball.
Speaker 3: The raging GT. Arrant he actually he filled in.
Speaker 1: For Cooper.
Speaker 2: When Cooper couldn't fly up really big shoester fill.
Speaker 1: There was some funny there were some strange moments. There
Speaker 1: was some funny moments. I was looking around and spotted this.
Speaker 1: These people pointed like there was a lovely Asian couple
Speaker 1: there and they're standing there having a be and so
Speaker 1: as I was walking over, someone said, oh yeah, I
Speaker 1: thought it was their friend and said, oh yeah, they're
Speaker 1: from China. So I got on. I had a long
Speaker 1: conversation with them on the on the mic, talking about
Speaker 1: you know, coming from China and everything. They were, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: they went actually went off from China from Malaysia. So
Speaker 1: that's a bit awkward. It was. It was awkward, particularly
Speaker 1: in this day and age. But what people I wasn't stereotyping.
Speaker 1: I was actually told on the way over that they
Speaker 1: were Chinese. Put that in big bold letters.
Speaker 4: Matthew John's is not a racist. No, I'm not perfect.
Speaker 1: I hate everyone.
Speaker 3: Jesus.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 3: Well, we had a few characters there. Barry was my favorite,
Speaker 3: so I mean dad. As we started the second part.
Speaker 1: I had to take over all your roles, so I
Speaker 1: struggled with the quiz we get.
Speaker 3: But what we did was we had to go around
Speaker 3: the crowd ask a few questions and I come across
Speaker 3: this guy, Barry in a raidous jersey.
Speaker 1: He's a buzzy guy. He's oh my god, he was
Speaker 1: just a live wire.
Speaker 3: We got him on stage. I'd not pulling him up
Speaker 3: because he sort of won the crowd over with some
Speaker 3: meaningful comments when we're questioning him. And as he got up,
Speaker 3: he gave Trishy's big old kiss. And I'll tell you what, cobble,
Speaker 3: I could see a bit of jealousy in the Copper's eyes.
Speaker 1: Search and destroying only come out the right and the
Speaker 1: left fist. I said, you just watch yourself, broh. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, there as well.
Speaker 3: It was all tiking about He's had like all these
Speaker 3: little one liners. But like about ten minutes into the quiz,
Speaker 3: Dad did a question where it was don't change. Come on.
Speaker 3: It was like, and I guess the song, and Barry
Speaker 3: just grabbed whispers in my ear and goes, oh my god,
Speaker 3: I've got an incredible story about this song. I went, oh, well,
Speaker 3: when he comes over, tell it so get sweet.
Speaker 1: He goes.
Speaker 3: Dad comes over. He goes, Maddie, it's don't change. I've
Speaker 3: actually got a hell of a story about this song.
Speaker 3: As he goes into.
Speaker 1: This story, it starts off like about.
Speaker 3: Matchbox twenty and we're going, oh, it must get to
Speaker 3: in excess somehow. Never got there, never got there, and
Speaker 3: then started referring to Matchbox twenty one, which was Mashbox twenty,
Speaker 3: which was a tattoo out in his forearm about Rob Thomas.
Speaker 1: It was that meeting Rob Thomas. He met Rob Thomas
Speaker 1: after a gig, and yeah, he's calling it a Matchbox
Speaker 1: twenty one, And I thought, has he got this wrong?
Speaker 1: And Matchbox twenty and he went oh, okay and looked
Speaker 1: at his arm and he had a tattoo with Rob
Speaker 1: Thomas's face and Matchbox twenty one underneath it.
Speaker 4: Geez, that's that's like that movie where the miller's have
Speaker 4: you seen that when he's got no regrets on he's
Speaker 4: written across his neck, but he wrote no ragret ag at.
Speaker 1: Remember the Remember the na Player. I'm not going to
Speaker 1: say it is quite embarrassing, but he was young at
Speaker 1: Penrith and he decided to get a tattoo right across
Speaker 1: like a necklace, like underneath his chin, right across like
Speaker 1: a horseshoe, and it was addicted to excellence and he's
Speaker 1: spelt excellence wrong. Oh god, yuck.
Speaker 2: Actually, if you've got any regretful tattoos where there's been
Speaker 2: some errors.
Speaker 4: Please let us know, yes, send him in. I saw
Speaker 4: this one actually on the internet the other day. It
Speaker 4: was a guy who he had his missus. It was
Speaker 4: like Karen, and he had Karen rid on his rib
Speaker 4: and then they obviously broke up, so then he he
Speaker 4: turned it into like something clever, like something else. Anyway,
Speaker 4: they obviously got back together, and then underneath that he's
Speaker 4: got Karen again, so it's like, now you know what
Speaker 4: he was. He tattooed like a rolling paint can across it,
Speaker 4: so it looked kind of cool, but like you could
Speaker 4: tell he rubbed something out on it and then got
Speaker 4: Karen again. Then they've broken up again. So now he's
Speaker 4: just got these two like paint rollers that have blacked
Speaker 4: out his name.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Ben Affleck did the same thing with Jayla. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's got Jayla buked out out, plucked out.
Speaker 4: Of course he's making it up, just a joke, my
Speaker 4: magic round stuff.
Speaker 1: Oh maybe I saw Owen Wilson a magic ground. Yes,
Speaker 1: I went to the Carlisle to catch up with found
Speaker 1: on the Thursday night and this guy walked in and
Speaker 1: I went for a scene. I went under a cowboy hat.
Speaker 1: I went, I think I know that fell. I look
Speaker 1: closer and only one man's good a nose like that,
Speaker 1: and it was Owen Wilson Tating and Wilson.
Speaker 4: Brent Tates got one as well.
Speaker 1: Possibly under that. He wasn't so much. He was sort
Speaker 1: of he was he was pretty good. He was a
Speaker 1: lot of people weren't going utching because I didn't notice him.
Speaker 1: But no, he certainly wasn't hiding out and he didn't
Speaker 1: have a lot of security or anything around him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've seen a video of him walking on Captain Street.
Speaker 4: Like a lot of videos sort of emerged of him

Speaker 4: filming him.

Speaker 1: are both got the same middle name, Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson,
Speaker 1: the middle name Cunningham.
Speaker 2: Why is that their mother's surname real Estate?
Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure Cunningham or Happy Days? Yeah, yeah, sure,

Speaker 1: but they're running to Johnny Sutton. Didn't he given a
Speaker 1: few of these Maruver mates.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're up there. They rush on my flight back.
Speaker 3: Those Murvera boys. They look like they had a big
Speaker 3: trip and they look like they're a bit worse for wear,
Speaker 3: the rub of boys or would expect nothing less? Yes, yes,
Speaker 3: but they had a really good time. Mate. We ran
Speaker 3: to everyone. Geez, I'm trying to go through the list
Speaker 3: right now. Uncle Joey, Uncle Joey one night and he's
Speaker 3: made tangles.
Speaker 1: Andrew Tanger to Tower, Yeah, tangles and Brad Fidlers with
Speaker 1: Uncle Joey. That that crew, and then we were in
Speaker 1: the Terry Lamb were there and some of the Bulldogs. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was fantastic, mate. When I was doing commentary in
Speaker 1: the box, Dan Ganne always has the window open. I'd
Speaker 1: get the atmosphere and I'm looking down and I see
Speaker 1: Steve Jackson down there. Steve Jackson scored probably the most
Speaker 1: famous Grand Final trial onside Albi in extra time for
Speaker 1: Canberra in the eighty nine Grand Final and I went,
Speaker 1: oh this, I forgot what I was doing, and I went, oh,
Speaker 1: Steve Jackson down there, Oh Dan, I think he scored.
Speaker 1: That might have been his day Booth scoring that winning try,
Speaker 1: and he goes really, I went, hang on a second,
Speaker 1: I'll ask him and I went, ah, jacko, jacko, mate,
Speaker 1: was that your deboo game? And I expected him to
Speaker 1: go thumbs up or thumbs down? And he turned around,
Speaker 1: this is while the comments you're still going and walked
Speaker 1: up to the box, walked up to the front of
Speaker 1: the box and I went mad. He no, it wasn't. Coincidentally,
Speaker 1: it was getting balmin in the middle of the year
Speaker 1: and I actually hurt my name, did mymodial and I
Speaker 1: was out for nine weeks. And then we're sitting there
Speaker 1: talking for about thirty seconds. Well you didn't comic, Well, dang,
Speaker 1: it ain't. And Mick Ennis is just looking at me,
Speaker 1: going when is this going to end? Anyway? I spoke
Speaker 1: to the director afterwards, I hope you didn't mind. They
Speaker 1: went Now we just said because who's mad he talking
Speaker 1: to He said, don't worry about just let it go.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, today, it's a magic ground.
Speaker 4: Well this is what you because you sounded like you'd
Speaker 4: had a few beers over the weekend in the commentary
Speaker 4: on Sunday, like you had a bit of a frog
Speaker 4: in your throw, didn't you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean it's magic ground whenever you throw
Speaker 1: your bags in your hotel room. Every time I get
Speaker 1: there and I say to trash this weekend. I'm not
Speaker 1: going to do a number on myself, but every Sunday,
Speaker 1: and I think nearly everyone who's up there. Everyone Thursday,
Speaker 1: Friday people are just full of boons.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Saturday everyone's sort of just coming off the bit a
Speaker 1: little bit.
Speaker 3: Jeez.
Speaker 1: Sunday people are fatigued. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, on a Saturday. We're at lunch too. We actually
Speaker 3: have a little win, which we'll get to in a minute.
Speaker 3: But you ran into maxi Plath. Remember maxi Plath was
Speaker 3: sitting there.
Speaker 1: I forgot about that.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Max Plath is a.
Speaker 1: Middle for the young play against his dad Johnny.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he was a great fellow too. I've never
Speaker 3: met him before, really nice guy. But you started telling
Speaker 3: him stories about his old man. I think you might
Speaker 3: have been a little bit rattled by how ruthless old
Speaker 3: man might have been.
Speaker 1: His old man was. His old man was an incredible sledger.
Speaker 1: His old man was a little bit like him. He's
Speaker 1: not built the same, He's a bit bit leaner than Max.
Speaker 1: But his dad was a bit of an everywhere like.
Speaker 1: He could play. He was like Kurt Man. That's what
Speaker 1: I like him. As a footballer. He was a real utility,
Speaker 1: could play here, there and everywhere. But man, he had
Speaker 1: a he had an acid mouth.
Speaker 4: He was.
Speaker 1: He was a very very good sledger. And I was
Speaker 1: telling Max about it, and I thought Max had laugh
Speaker 1: But Max seemed a little bit horrified that his dad
Speaker 1: could say such a nasty things.
Speaker 2: In your time playing, that was the best sledger.
Speaker 3: The worst.
Speaker 1: Okay, I would go most offensive if you like. Gold
Speaker 1: medal goes to matthew Ridge. Oh yeah, matthew Ridge was made.
Speaker 1: He was a horrific sledger. Silver medal goes to Ricky Stewart.
Speaker 1: Ricky is a very good sledge my mate Ricky. And
Speaker 1: the third one probably is Philly called Paul la Max
Speaker 1: Lame Mack used to just commentate the game during the
Speaker 1: match as he's playing. Oh yeah, yeah, it's going to
Speaker 1: watch to Joey forward, sir, the ball was forward. He
Speaker 1: would never shut up the referee, sometimes go on to
Speaker 1: a scrum, say Langers, Langers, mate, you're killing me. Just
Speaker 1: put a cork in it.
Speaker 4: There's not many good sledges anymore. I played with one
Speaker 4: Will Chambers and he would do background checks to get
Speaker 4: private information. And then he would sometimes we're playing reserve grade.
Speaker 4: He would find. He'd go through that, say me and
Speaker 4: Harry and Nico were playing against towns with Blackhawks. He
Speaker 4: would go through the team list on the Tuesday, find
Speaker 4: like a kid who's never even played first grade. He
Speaker 4: just plays Queensland Cup up in Townsville. He works full time.
Speaker 4: He would find out dirt on their family and he
Speaker 4: would give it to us. Heard that and he'd say,
Speaker 4: I'll get into him about this. I went on his
Speaker 4: sister's Facebook and I was like, Chamber, this is too much.
Speaker 4: I said, this is too much. I'm not going up
Speaker 4: to towns and he was like, do it.
Speaker 1: I tell when I used too A bit of a
Speaker 1: dossier on players. We learned that off the War Brothers crickets,
Speaker 1: Mark and Steve Board. They when they were sort of
Speaker 1: the senior players, and Steve was the captain of the
Speaker 1: Australian cricket side. He's the dossier on players. So if
Speaker 1: a guy walked to the crease, he's sat Glen McGrath.
Speaker 1: Don't sledge this bloke. Don't sledge him. If you sledge him,
Speaker 1: he'll just dig in and you play better other players.
Speaker 1: He just make it into you start sledging.
Speaker 3: Best one I've seen that I've played with was Tyson Gamble.
Speaker 3: For sure, I'd believe that Cody had a bit in
Speaker 3: him at the house, but Tyson. Like the thing that
Speaker 3: with Tyson was shocked the hell out of us. Was
Speaker 3: he came down from Brisbane and he'd be known as
Speaker 3: a as a sledger, and everyone thought it like prepared
Speaker 3: themselves for a bit of a wrap back but when
Speaker 3: a grub well it's your opinion, but he's honestly one
Speaker 3: of the nicest blokes you could ever meet. And we
Speaker 3: all thought, oh, maybe he's just maybe it was just
Speaker 3: the team up there, brisy And then he come down
Speaker 3: and had a whole pre season. Didn't hear like a
Speaker 3: peep out of him? That was like anything nasty. Round
Speaker 3: two because we were both eighteen nineteenth man against the Warriors.
Speaker 3: Round one. We both come in round two against the
Speaker 3: Tigers twenty twenty three, he comes on for klen remem
Speaker 3: mckaalen got knocked out. Ye puts this bomb up his
Speaker 3: first touch of the ball. And the things he yelled
Speaker 3: at David Nofaluma, I can never say the nopice your man.
Speaker 4: No office mate. The office is one of the best
Speaker 4: places of all time. He never has a down day.
Speaker 4: He's open three hundred and sixty five days.
Speaker 1: Ye have a few down down days with the Tigers.
Speaker 4: Should seem even on a leap here. He's the only
Speaker 4: one of the works he dos hundred and sixty six.
Speaker 4: Oh Jesus, a good man in the office. Over he's
Speaker 4: over playing. So I think he might be over in
Speaker 4: Malta somewhere like that playing. He's playing somewhere. What he's
Speaker 4: playing somewhere obscure. And I've seen he was playing fullback,
Speaker 4: which is bad for the Enoughice because Office hasn't passed
Speaker 4: his twenty twelve.
Speaker 1: Well, if he's playing in Malta, something tells me he
Speaker 1: won't have to pass.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Oh. I saw he posted something Instagram the
Speaker 4: other day and you like literally walked seven blokes over
Speaker 4: the tryline.
Speaker 1: There's some strange places where they play Rabbul league. Serbia
Speaker 1: has got a like a growing and strong quite a
Speaker 1: strong competence.
Speaker 4: Might be Serbia, It might be it is.
Speaker 3: We'll tell you why while we're waiting, while Cooper's searching
Speaker 3: it where the office is. I actually had to take
Speaker 3: over a lot of Cooper's roles on Saturday for him,
Speaker 3: and one of those roles might have been across with Sunrise.
Speaker 3: Got there and someone was doing a cross with me beforehand.
Speaker 3: Trevor Gilmeister, never met him before. What a lovely bloke.
Speaker 3: He was so nice. I was chatting to him and
Speaker 3: I've never met him before and he was just such
Speaker 3: a lovely bloke. I didn't Yeah, I didn't know too much.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because wait for this people when we started did
Speaker 1: we started the podcast up there by saying, if you're
Speaker 1: a Coeenslander, I kind of Queensland, which would you be anyway?
Speaker 1: Trish goes, I've got one, I've got you know, and
Speaker 1: she's sleep She's got Trevor Gilmeister. So the crowd she's
Speaker 1: waiting because the crowd's all sitting there and.
Speaker 3: They got a photo for him to pop up.
Speaker 1: I went Julian massage. Jacko'd you go? I had Billy
Speaker 1: Slater Gordon went to Greg Inglis and Trisha's last and
Speaker 1: she's just going proud, so proud, and she goes mine
Speaker 1: is Trevor Gillespie. But you could hear the crowd go.
Speaker 4: Sorry to find to circle back to Nafer. No idea,
Speaker 4: no idea where he is. But the jersey looks like
Speaker 4: he's either in Serbia or Malta.
Speaker 2: Is it red and white?
Speaker 4: It is like it was like green red and one.
Speaker 4: It was almost like Italian.
Speaker 2: The Serbian one is white red with a bit of gold.
Speaker 1: Red star Belgrade. Yes, yes, yes. A couple of things
Speaker 1: before we get to our big bet. One thing that
Speaker 1: I remember this morning because things that.
Speaker 2: Sounds great, our big bet, our big bet.
Speaker 1: Yes, because things when you look back at magic, things
Speaker 1: are just sort of come to you as you in
Speaker 1: drips and draps, like I can't remember really mac Plath
Speaker 1: until your set there, oh yea, because there's always something
Speaker 1: that's going on. I remember this this morning. We're in
Speaker 1: a pub and I got Steph curried by bloke. And
Speaker 1: what with Steph curried is when someone talks and a
Speaker 1: piece of spit comes out of their mouth, goes in
Speaker 1: the air and lands in your mouth like a three
Speaker 1: point shot. So the blokes standing there and he's blind,
Speaker 1: and he's talking to me, and he's showing his phone, going, mate,
Speaker 1: guess look, I guess who I ran into look at this,
Speaker 1: And as he leaned over to me and started to talk,
Speaker 1: a piece of spit just went out of his mouth
Speaker 1: and I washed it and I went straight into mine.
Speaker 1: But we just looked at each other. It was just
Speaker 1: like an awkward length. I don't know. I didn't I
Speaker 1: didn't wait to ask.
Speaker 4: That is so relentless.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's disgusting, now, Jack, Yes, let's talk about a
Speaker 1: certain Fletcher Sharp, one of my new favorite players. I think, well,
Speaker 1: he's definitely well, actually it's just about my favorite player
Speaker 1: that's not going to Yes, that's not going it.
Speaker 2: So mighty be the radous thing that comes out of
Speaker 2: cesnot Oh, come on.
Speaker 1: Let's get the get the bronze middal Yeah, Billy, yes,
Speaker 1: he was, well, actually you're right, Just go and order
Speaker 1: John's of the m variety A the John's Variety, and
Speaker 1: Billy putin yeah, of course. And then Fletcher maybe he's
Speaker 1: coming up, he's coming up. Like a prey train. Yeah.
Speaker 1: He I was asked for a bet on se n right,
Speaker 1: the last segment we do we go think called long
Speaker 1: it's gonna be ten dollars or more in the ad
Speaker 1: break and going right, what are we gonna do? I
Speaker 1: went right, Knights got a feeling like South's have got
Speaker 1: a lot out in between. When I did the bet
Speaker 1: and and placed the bet, South lost another two players
Speaker 1: and so at the time it was almost split Knights
Speaker 1: in South sort of bit not is that, but Knights
Speaker 1: We're about probably a dollar seventy four. So I went right,
Speaker 1: what am I going to do here? Okay, I think
Speaker 1: the Knights are going to win, and I think they'll win, well,
Speaker 1: it's chances that it's going to be a dry track
Speaker 1: at three o'clock in the afternoon. Who's the bloker? Just
Speaker 1: pop up and score tries? And I went, well, Fletcher Sharp,
Speaker 1: even though they haven't been playing well, he's just got
Speaker 1: that spark about him.
Speaker 2: A quick question, what position does he play?
Speaker 1: He plays? I play six, but he plays more like
Speaker 1: a one anyway, someone watching and I've been watching him,
Speaker 1: thinking right, So I went Nights to win. Fletcher Sharp
Speaker 1: two tries or more? Put the bed on twenty three
Speaker 1: to one. Then I thought to myself, if he gets two,
Speaker 1: who knows, he might just get three. So I went,
Speaker 1: let's see what the odds are and I went Fletcher
Speaker 1: Sharp three tries or more nights to win, and it
Speaker 1: came up two hundred to one, and then I boosted
Speaker 1: it and went to two hundred and thirty eight dollars
Speaker 1: to one, and I just thought, this is this is
Speaker 1: just too good to miss. Who was ever placed?
Speaker 4: Who on earth has ever thought, well, if he's going
Speaker 4: to score two, he may as well score three. I've
Speaker 4: never that is such a gamblers mindset.
Speaker 5: After he scored two, he was being offered and opt
Speaker 5: out cash out.
Speaker 2: Yeahs Should I take it? Should I take it? I
Speaker 2: went no?
Speaker 4: I said, apparently Jack talked to him.
Speaker 1: You did and Jack had a real impact.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, well impact sounds good. Yeah.
Speaker 1: There was an option there for five hundred a decent
Speaker 1: cash out. No, it was nearly a thousand at one point. Yeah,
Speaker 1: hit a thousand, and I said I'm going to get out.
Speaker 1: We said let it ride, Let it ride.
Speaker 3: And halfway through the second half, I look over and
Speaker 3: the smile on his face.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because how it started we're having lunch and just
Speaker 1: sort of forget the games on. You can magic ground.
Speaker 1: You've got to pick and choose your games. You can't
Speaker 1: get every game sit watch. So I went, oh, Jack,
Speaker 1: the games on, let's have a look. Picked it up.
Speaker 1: Thirty minutes have been gone flitchershop. It's called two tries
Speaker 1: in the first eight minutes, and we went, oh wow. However,
Speaker 1: when it went into the second half, as the second
Speaker 1: half started to wear on, my cash out they're offering
Speaker 1: just started dwindling, and I almost lost my nerve. I
Speaker 1: almost hit it, and Jack was like, don't do it.
Speaker 4: You just you would not have if you had cashed
Speaker 4: out and I had won, you wouldn't have lived with yourself.
Speaker 1: Something that gives you so much satisfaction is when you
Speaker 1: tip it and other people get on. Because Jack got
Speaker 1: on gave me satisfaction. Fletch had a go and Fletcher's
Speaker 1: mate had one hundred bucks on it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's very well documented, very well documented. They
Speaker 4: had Fletch one about eight grand. It was all over
Speaker 4: the Daily Mail and Telegraph. Yeah, buzz I think reported
Speaker 4: on it, like Fletcher Green tipped Fletcher Sharp.
Speaker 3: Well, I went on, I went on Sunrise that morning
Speaker 3: to doing that cross and I said, I said, oh.
Speaker 3: They said, oh, who do you think today, South Sydney
Speaker 3: or the Nights? I said, I think the Knights break
Speaker 3: their streak. And I got a real feeling about Fletcher
Speaker 3: Sharp today. I said it on air. Jem's got it recorded.
Speaker 1: Now you're going on the You're going on the morning
Speaker 1: show soon, mate. Get them to dig it up, Get
Speaker 1: them to dig it up. So you've been.
Speaker 3: Told for show Copper Sunrise.
Speaker 1: Still the same network.
Speaker 4: Hey, do you want me to do that?
Speaker 1: I should do?
Speaker 4: All of a sudden, the cross goes from me attention
Speaker 4: on to Jack.
Speaker 2: You know I won't do that.
Speaker 4: I'll do it. I'll message her today and I'll say, hey,
Speaker 4: my brother apparently tipped it in. Dig up that footage
Speaker 4: for me.
Speaker 1: Anyone else's magic ground. I wasn't there.
Speaker 5: I just want to say I loved meeting our people,
Speaker 5: like literally face to face, having chats.
Speaker 2: It just reconfirms everything I think.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the boys from Granala, the Shire, there are beautiful
Speaker 5: young blakes, actually terrific. Heaps of people from Melbourne at
Speaker 5: Townsville and Cannes, Monica, Sally Janelle.
Speaker 1: People from Hole, Laura whole.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there were people from everywhere and that's what I
Speaker 5: love about Magic Ground and Brisbane. And that's why they
Speaker 5: have to keep it in Brisbane. If they want to
Speaker 5: do another Magic Ground another weekend somewhere else.
Speaker 3: Do it, they have to.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they have to let Brisbane have that.
Speaker 3: It's such a good vibe. They could do it some
Speaker 3: stage after Origin possibly yeah, yeah, but it's such a
Speaker 3: good spot. Like a lot of the people they came
Speaker 3: to our show too, We'll chatting to come from like
Speaker 3: central Queensland. Like we're talking like twelve hour drives, crazy stuff.
Speaker 4: I would love I'd love not to be called Magic Round,
Speaker 4: but come up with another one that they take it
Speaker 4: down south to Melbourne. Oh, I'd love to see them
Speaker 4: because the Melbourne is they do love the ones that
Speaker 4: go to the Rugby League. They're so loyal and they
Speaker 4: love it.
Speaker 1: They've just got to see where They've got to be careful.
Speaker 1: Is the Vegas is the big trip, right they're talking
Speaker 1: about taking Magic Ground possibly overseas. Now I would be
Speaker 1: I'd be happy with Auckland. I think Auckland got very
Speaker 1: good having it at Eden Park. But they're talking Hong
Speaker 1: Kong and that you're going, no, no, don't. We've got Vegas,
Speaker 1: the bread and butter Rugby league fan who goes to
Speaker 1: Magic Round. You don't want them ask them twice Vegas
Speaker 1: and then Hong Kong. No, no, no, no, Let's keep
Speaker 1: keep it simple. Let's do it at Brisbane. Brisbane deserve
Speaker 1: to hold onto it. It's magic.
Speaker 3: But if they're doing something like that, and they're looking
Speaker 3: at doing like a tournament vibe like they do the
Speaker 3: Auckland Nins, it's been it's been proven. The New Zealand
Speaker 3: crowds turn up, so, you know, similar to Brisbane, but
Speaker 3: the exactly the kiwis love it. It will work over there.
Speaker 3: But whether it will work as good as Brisbane, I
Speaker 3: don't think.
Speaker 4: Huis travel everywhere. They traveled to Vegas this year. They
Speaker 4: apparently they were in spades at Magic Round this year
Speaker 4: they won Magic Ground. Let me tell you something right now,
Speaker 4: I'm going to have an early crow. The sorry my knees.
Speaker 1: Cross, I don't know I've been accident.
Speaker 4: So I'm going to have an early crow. That's what
Speaker 4: I said. Now cry the Warriors fans this year will
Speaker 4: be the best fans of all time this year. It's
Speaker 4: not really an early crow is that it's just more
Speaker 4: of a statement. I think. I think they're the best
Speaker 4: fans in the NFL. I'm going to say go ahead
Speaker 4: and say that right now. Really there are some great
Speaker 4: there are some awesome clubs with some loyal fans and
Speaker 4: they got a big fan base. But I don't think
Speaker 4: any fans in the NRL get around a team, team
Speaker 4: morale and energy at a game like the Wise fans.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they finally engaged the whole country, all of New Zealand.
Speaker 5: Can I make a point though, those visitors, the Warriors
Speaker 5: supporters that were in Brisbane, do you think a lot
Speaker 5: of them came from New Zealand or do you think
Speaker 5: there are a lot of them that are actually from
Speaker 5: Brisbane and from the Gold Coast because Gold Coast always
Speaker 5: has passive numbers of Warrior supported because there's a lot
Speaker 5: of New Zealanders there.
Speaker 1: I think split Trician because I ran into miles agoy
Speaker 1: mile of people from Auckland and South Island. OK, so
Speaker 1: they do a lot of travel like every like at
Speaker 1: Vegas there was a lot. Yeah, there was the White fans,
Speaker 1: Wales fans were everywhere. It's a great effort to because
Speaker 1: those the flights.
Speaker 3: They get boosted up during that period, were going to
Speaker 3: get a lot of people going to.
Speaker 1: Bridge, much like Dad's Maulti. They get price posted.
Speaker 4: What about the airlines at the moment Sydney to Melbourne
Speaker 4: and Melbourne to Sydney, Are you kidding? It's the most
Speaker 4: expensive flight in Australia.
Speaker 1: It's graceful and they keep apologizing about it, and they
Speaker 1: keep going, oh yeah, we're sorry about that. Will be better,
Speaker 1: they said twelve months ago. They haven't changed a bit.
Speaker 5: They haven't had a couple of different sales, and when
Speaker 5: one usually has a sale, the other major airline.
Speaker 2: Will usually have a sale.
Speaker 5: But I don't know that Melbourne has been involved as
Speaker 5: much as the northern cities.
Speaker 3: Are you kidding? I won't drink to that.
Speaker 4: That's this is the one thing on earth I won't
Speaker 4: drink too. I will not drink to that on a
Speaker 4: school night, absolutely not.
Speaker 1: Before sorry, don't you.
Speaker 4: I was going to say, can we do coops quiz yet?
Speaker 1: We can? Before we do that, can I just give something?
Speaker 1: I went rabbit hole in the other night. This could
Speaker 1: be just a little bit of interest to people young
Speaker 1: and old. So I got on. It came up nine
Speaker 1: to eighty five Australian schoolboys rugby union side Ricky Stewart captain.
Speaker 1: So I went, okay, I'll have a look at this. Anyway,
Speaker 1: they're showing it was your conquering Australian school boys union
Speaker 1: side that went over into the British Isles and came
Speaker 1: back totally underfoited. There was a lot of fanfare about
Speaker 1: it at the player who got the meant that the

Speaker 1: they said after leaving school he's expected now to sign
Speaker 1: with the Ilauorra Steelers. And I went, oh yeah, and
Speaker 1: typed in worried Giddy find out what he did afterwards?
Speaker 1: His son's Josh Giddy. No way, which son is Josh Giddy?
Speaker 1: So obviously after that, I don't think he signed with
Speaker 1: the Ilori Steelers. He must have chose to go into basketball,
Speaker 1: and then apparently his dad played him what he played
Speaker 1: in one of the big Melbourne sides. Yeah, of course.
Speaker 4: That's where he played. He turned up earlier in the
Speaker 4: week and played at a local game in Frankston. His

Speaker 3: First one I've gone with today casino games. After we
Speaker 3: all we're hanging out at the start the other day
Speaker 3: it was unreal. All right, here we go. First game, poker, poker.
Speaker 4: I like poker as a game, but as a casino game.
Speaker 4: I rarely played in a casino.
Speaker 1: I'll play four. I'll say four, obviously thinking three something
Speaker 1: happened before four.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll go four, all right.
Speaker 3: Next one I've gone with Roulettet is good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll go two.
Speaker 4: I was thinking too, but I'm also thinking, what's what.
Speaker 1: I'm going to I'm going to go through. It's just
Speaker 1: for you though, you.
Speaker 2: Just only learn if you knew how to play it.
Speaker 4: You learned how to play it four months ago.
Speaker 1: I learned how to because of black Jack's in there.
Speaker 1: I think black Jack's won.
Speaker 4: I think black Jack beat.
Speaker 1: I think in terms of iconic and these The other one,
Speaker 1: which is so at the moment we've got four poker,
Speaker 1: I think Roulette three.
Speaker 4: I'd say two. Me and Shandor had our system with
Speaker 4: at that time.
Speaker 2: Will you know, yeah, will you end up losing?
Speaker 1: That's the other big win. I didn't tell you about
Speaker 1: lots of money. Actually yeah, I had the hot hand
Speaker 1: when I arrived. We arrived there, I went, had a
Speaker 1: little hit on the Hokey Pokey's one two hundred, and
Speaker 1: then when over did Nytrish and started playing Roulette. Looked
Speaker 1: at the rule when they say what comes up all
Speaker 1: the numbers? Yeah, Jack it went nine, followed by nine,
Speaker 1: twenty four, followed by twenty four, and then as I'm
Speaker 1: standing there, come up number fourteen. I thought, well, it's
Speaker 1: going with the system. I'll just go number fourteen again.
Speaker 1: So had ten bucks on number fourteen came up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: thirty five.
Speaker 4: A tip for people who play roulette the amount of
Speaker 4: times and it becomes it matters on the person who's
Speaker 4: putting the ball in the roulette wheel. It's very consistent
Speaker 4: with the area. It can drop in sometimescha, So if
Speaker 4: you have a special number around that general area, if
Speaker 4: they've and you can always sort of watch a roulette
Speaker 4: Deloh's got a real consistent sort of push on the ball.
Speaker 4: They generally fall around this. Don't quote me on that.
Speaker 1: That is professional shandle. Is that a shandor thing?
Speaker 4: No, No, that's just a general observation. When I played
Speaker 4: roulette for like a.
Speaker 3: Long time, No one takes advice Number two, number next one,
Speaker 3: Keino five?
Speaker 4: Are you kidding?
Speaker 1: I love kes got to be five?
Speaker 4: Awesome.
Speaker 2: Well it's better than Pokey's so.
Speaker 1: You can have it on three? Yeah, well it might be.
Speaker 1: I think it's got to be five. Kina, Will you
Speaker 1: vote Trish three or five?
Speaker 2: Depends what else is in there. He's not going to
Speaker 2: put craps in, Okay, I'll go three.
Speaker 3: Okay, I love next one.
Speaker 4: Craps number one for me, I think five.
Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of crap on five.

Speaker 4: It exactly, so I don't like, what are you talking about?
Speaker 2: Sorry, you win money on.
Speaker 1: Its number one.
Speaker 3: I love one black jack, of course, like jack.

Speaker 4: too much. Oh she was like, oh, are you sure
Speaker 4: you want to kick going well. I was doing some
Speaker 4: I think I wasn't gambling too much, but I think
Speaker 4: for what they were used to and Keino, like people
Speaker 4: don't usually put as I think as big a beat
Speaker 4: as I was putting on in on some pretty heavy bet.
Speaker 4: I was pretty well hydrated, but I had I don't
Speaker 4: know why. I just thought it would be funny to like,
Speaker 4: in my head, I was like, how funny would it
Speaker 4: be to just put like really large bets on a
Speaker 4: game like Keino and then have all the boys whip
Speaker 4: at home? Remember we were all sitting there every time.
Speaker 1: I got his shirt, every time did you whip at home?
